Mark Jenner

A professional writer for over a decade, Mark Jenner draws on a background shaped by years of strategic thinking and risk analysis. Before turning to writing, he spent many years immersed in the world of poker — grinding cash games, studying tournament strategy, and treating the game as a serious, long-term pursuit.

He also ran betting systems on Betfair, backing and laying across a range of sports to find consistent value. To reduce risk and lock in profits, he would arb across multiple sportsbooks and take advantage of live in-game market swings — always looking for angles others missed.

These days, his main focus is BBQ. He runs a website dedicated to it, barbecues several times a week, and can usually be found outside with the smoker going, sports on the outdoor TV, and a cold beer in hand. He’s still a keen sports fan and bets recreationally multiple times a week, usually eking out a small profit.
